Nancy Schwartzman's Peabody nominated documentary chronicles the story of the notorious Steubenville high school sexual assault case. Roll Red Roll uncovers the engrained rape culture at the heart of the incident, acting as a cautionary tale about what can happen when teenage social media bullying runs rampant and adults look the other way.
I was tasked with building out the film's poster, ahead of its release at the Tribeca Film festival. (Which later repurposed into a book cover.) I also provided social media assets for promotion, as it made its way across worldwide film circuits and Netflix.
